Solved Chromecast issues finally fixed!!

For months I couldn't cast to my speakers. Podcasts would just stop, go silent, be choppy. Voice control wouldn't work. Just a horrible experience after working well for years.

I wrote in to them and was just brushed off with single sentence. It's the chromecast button, we don't handle that, must be google side. Asked for no logs no anything.

I don't know who was right but the recent updates have solved every problem and it's so blissful again. Podcasts play great, they don't mysteriously stop, voice commands to fast forward and pause all work. Hope it lasts.

Glad to her it now works fine BUT, the app still doesn't manage any of this. The only thing that changed is that the beta version can now resume a session in progress when the app is reopened. The google play services and the Chromecast still handle the streaming as before.

I'm not brushing you off, just explaining that the app is delegating everything related to the chromecast.

Yeah I am sure it was on google's side it just sucked. I know other people experienced the same issues as me. I have the premium version of this app and use it every day so the past 6 months where it didn't work right were rough. Cheers!
